Reforestation Technologies International (RTI). Founded in 1993 by Neil & Maria Anderson, Reforestation Technologies International began in a tiny warehouse on the backside of Monterey Airport. The company focus was to provide products and technology to improve regeneration results in forestry and the mine reclamation and erosion control markets. In recent years, the core technologies that focus on soil biology and plant nutrient supply have been adapted to other markets including agriculture (RTI-Ag), landscape, turf (Green Diamond) and home gardening (Xtreme Gardening). In April 2013, the company acquired a much larger facility to handle those expanded markets. The thirteen acre site includes a 47,000 sq. ft production facility, 7,000 sq ft. of research greenhouses, and a quality control lab, and is located in Gilroy, CA.
